RE: The invisible people

in #life6 years ago

To most of us these unfortunate people are invisible because they represent everything that we fear: poverty in its cruelest form. That's why turning a blind eye on them is easier than acknowledging them or trying to find ways to help them.

Yep! mostly due their rampant superstitions and supine ignorance.

Not a lot of people spare them some change. Only a few would make eye contact and even fewer would attempt to engage in conversation, as if poverty was contagious.

Well, their loss my friend!! Let's let these rushed suckers, apathetic ignorants and indiferent illiterates lose the chance of their lifes to obtain something good, just because they simply have no time to listen or read a damn thing nor the desire to stop a bare minute and bend their loser bodies to talk with somebody when they are watching them from the above. };)

Great reflection and post my dear @lymepoet :)

Thank you! Disregarding the reason that lead to them being homeless, these people deserve to be acknowledged and helped. It is a shame that others prefer to turn their heads away just to make themseleves feel better. I just read an article stating that 22 veterans commit suicide per day. Some of them end up on the street because of PTSD. Aweful!
